The mentioned problem happens only when TERM = cygwin. If I set TERM to linux, dircolors works again. Could this be a termcap issue?

Typing it at the prompt does nothing: ~: dircolors -b LS_COLORS=''; export LS_COLORS If I try it with a file name, nothing happens either: ~: dircolors -p > aaa ~: dircolors -b aaa LS_COLORS=''; export LS_COLORS Anyone else experiencing this? Any hints on what it could be? BTW: 'ls' output *is* using colors, I just cannot customize it anymore. Best, Andre -- André Oliveira da Costa -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
